This would ideally should be posted under Sanskrit Words Blog but considering that I have reduced my postings and made them brief,as there is nothing major to report, except for some minor observations and how much impact they can have in our understanding of the ancients, it is imperative I write here.

Nazca Lines - na-akS(h)aya - nakS(h)a - This is a site of intense Astronomical and Archeological Research. You can watch Ancient Aliens Program on History Channel or read the book called "Chariots of Gods" by Eric Vandankien. In Sanskrit, the Space is called "akShaya" and the study of the zodiac arrangement of celestial stars is called "naakS(h)atra", which is the basis of Astronomy, where "kS(h)" is Sanskrit compound Sibilant with Cerebral "Sh". The "tra" makes an adjective or noun like to an Agent Noun like "er" in Hate-er". "akS(h)aya" means Space, that which can not be destroyed. "na + akShaya" means that can is Celstial but temporary, which is the Celestial Movements. So "naakS(h)atra" means the means to study the Celstial Stars. Now in English, the words having "x" approximates "kS" sound, as there is no such sound in English and there are many examples, which in past I have mentioned. Then there is further corruption between "x" and "z" sounds as many people for palatal "sh" use "z" letter, and in fact even some present Sanskrit Transliteration schemes use this letter to indicate palatal "sh" sound. So this is my intitution saying that word is corruption of "na-akS(h)aya". So this site had something to do with studies of the Celstials. This is what the speculation talks about. The other way to confirm this thesis is that the world for Map in Urdu (a Persian and Indian conglomerative Language) is 'nakS(h)a'. Is it not true the ancients use the Celetial Stars as the Map for Navigation in the Ancient World?

Pampas de Jumana - Jamuna - Now interesting Pampa in Sanskrit could mean River, specially when following Ramanaya Period, which I placed either at 28,000 or 280,000 based on the Yuga or the Ages of Period principle and a study on some Astronomical and Religious Practices, and we already have Yamuna and Jamuna river of Ancient Lores in India.

Palenque - palanquin. Now see the pictures of the King in a speculated Spacecraft carrier in his Mausolem.

Usumacinta River - it would mean a river that got dried by heat or is immune to heat - depending on how we parse "a" sound to be single "a" or "aa", as "a" is the most confusing sound in Languages.

Jalpa - While watching the History Channel and watching on Spanish conquest of the Mayans, there they showed a river path, and one place was called "Jal Pa". What this would mean is the place where water was obtained in Sanskrit.

Kīlauea - One of the Hawain Volcanoes. The local legend says that there is a Godess that consumes everything and the Indian Godess is called "Kaali". The History channel said Godess "Qali" or something and my digging yielded Pele, and not sure how the locals pronounce it.We should note that in western languages, "k" and "p" are close sounds as "j" and "h" are (look up the pronounciation for San Jose).
